Has Someone Confirmed "The Message" on the Purple Rain CD After Darling Nikki?

Correct Me If I'm Wrong but isn't it a Backward Message of:

"Hello How are you. Fine Fine. Because I know that the Lord is Coming Coming Coming Soon."???

Its funny I was thinking why wouldn't everyone know that. But then I realized that vinyl albums haven't been sold en mass in over 15 years. I still remember putting PURPLE RAIN on the turntable and spinning it backwords to figure out what Prince was saying after Darling Nikki. smile

What I'd like to know after all these years is what is Prince saying during the backwards masking in Purple Rain (the movie)? In the scene where Apolonia is in Prince's room and Prince pops in a tape she says "So who's the lucky girl? Sounds like she's having a good time." Prince says "She's crying. Its backwards." You can tell words are being spoken. I'd love to know what is being said there. Anyone?
the music knows what your motives are when you are making it

listen to The Replacements - its good for the soul

Sure, it's a conversation between him and Jill Jones. He's arguing with her (possibly breaking it off?) and she's saying that she doesn't want to do it anymore. At the end of the argument she's crying. Remember, in the original draft, Jill had a definite past relationship with the Kid. This wasn't covered much with the final draft, just kinda hinted at. But yeahg, although the words are difficult to make out since Prince (The Kid) and Appolonia are speaking during some of the backwards speak, but the gist of it is that in the message the kid and jill are fighting.
Walking alone in the dark, I see nothing u see
I can be in a park, or flying in the…in the deep sea
I wish u’d hold my hand; then everything could b
There’s nothing strange, we’re not deranged
We only want everyday 2 b a Cosmic Day

there is also a backwards lyrics at the beggining of Baby Im A Star,
Wendy or Lisa saying "Like what the fuck do they know.All their taste is in their mouth.Really. what the fuck do they know? Come on baby. let’s go... crazy"
Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

It's a small detail, I know, but is it really "fine, fine"? "I'm fine" makes a little more sense. confuse
